Riding the Winds with Broken Wings

by Annette Marie

This moving story of a mother’s heartache inflicted upon her by her son’s addiction to methamphetamines, should serve as a warning to all parents of teenagers. This book offers you an "up close and personal view" of the author’s life during the period of her son’s drug addiction. She urges mothers to join in her journey and in so doing, become enlightened about children's drug use. She hopes that unsuspecting and trusting mothers read these pages as well as mothers that have dealt with or are dealing with a drug-addicted son or daughter. Says Annette, "In the former case, I hope you are enlightened. In the latter case, I hope to provide an avenue of comfort and reassurance that you are not alone in your painful experience. Thus, mother-to-mother, we will be climbing mountains of hope and falling into valleys of despair. If I can help but one mother (or father or family member) avoid the pain I experienced, my efforts in revealing my story will be well worthwhile."
